Working with Multiple Screens
To access your custom workspaces, navigate to the
Window
menu and select the
My Workspaces
sub-
menu, then select the desired workspace to apply. Alternatively, click on the workspace selector, select the
My Workspaces
sub-menu and select the desired workspace.
Working with Multiple Screens
Capture NX 2 has been improved to better support multiple screens. Palettes and windows can be freely
placed on any available screen. Furthermore, you can set workspaces independently on each connected
screen. Custom workspaces can also be created, capturing the state of multiple screens, enabling you to
quickly and easily switch between single screen and multiple screen configurations.
When working with multiple screens, Capture NX determines which screen is the primary screen and which
screen is the additional screen differently for the different operating systems.
For the Windows operating system, the primary screen is the screen where the application window is
placed. You can move the application window by clicking on the Restore button, moving the application
window to another screen, and then clicking on the Maximize button. The remaining screen will be the
additional screen.
For the Macintosh operating system, the primary screen is the screen that contains the Menu Bar and Dock.
The screen that does not have the Menu Bar and Dock will be the additional screen.
Additional screen Sub-Menu
Capture NX 2 continuously checks for the presence of additional screens. As soon as an additional screen is
found, a new sub-menu called the
Additional Screen
sub-menu is added to the
Workspaces
sub-menu
of the
Window
menu as well as to the
Workspaces selector
menu.
The
Workspaces
sub-menu will continue to control the workspace of the primary screen. The
Additional
Screen
sub-menu will control the workspace to be applied to the additional screen.
To use the default workspaces in a multiple screen configuration, follow these steps:
2
In the “Workspaces” tab of the “Preferences” dialog,
click on the pull-down menu next to the name of the
workspace you created and select the shortcut you
would like to use. If you select a shortcut already in
use by another workspace, the shortcut for that
other workspace will automatically be set to
None
.
1
Navigate to the
Window
menu, select the
Workspaces
sub-menu, and select the workspace you
would like to use on your primary screen.
2
Navigate back to the
Window
menu, select the
Workspaces
sub-menu, select the
Additional
Screen
sub-menu and then select the workspace to use on the additional screen.
